Using the Ellipse Tool create an ellipse 68 pixels wide by 75 pixels tall. Copy the fill from the hub cap (Ctrl c) on the larger wheel and then Paste Attributes to the ellipse (Edit > Paste Attributes or press Ctrl Shift a). Position the ellipse as shown above so it optically is in the center. Clone the rectangle and move it to the left of the ellipse as shown. Bring the left wheel to the front (Ctrl f).
Clone either of the rectangles and rotate 90 degrees. (Click twice to enable rotate/skew mode, hold down the Ctrl key, and drag any of the rounded corner arrows until the rotation snaps at 90 degrees). Select the rotated rectangle and Arrange > Convert to Editable Shapes. Center the rectangle on top of the ellipse as shown above in red dashed outline. With the rectangle selected, switch to the Shape Editor Tool and drag the curve on the bottom into a flatter curve as shown.
Using the Ellipse Tool, create a 26 pixel circle. Set the fill to none (Left click the cross hatched box to the left of the screen palette) and select 4pt from the Width drop down list on the Infobar. From the Arrange menu, select Convert Line to Shapes. Copy the Conical fill (Ctrl c) and Paste Attributes (Ctrl Shift a) to the new O-shape. Using the Bevel Tool, select Rounded from the Bevel Type drop down list. Press the in-facing 4 arrows icon to change the bevel to Inner. Increase the Contrast setting to 100%.
Here is the final wheels assembly. Save your drawing and take a short break. When you return, we'll create the eye container portion of the drawing.
